By the afternoon, white snow pellets were falling from the sky and by night, a light coating was covering my cement. I rather see white foam from a waterfall instead, especially when the mist causes a mini rainbow patch to appear also.

Between the rain and snow, it wasn’t fun shoveling the heavy wet snow or trying to scrape the underlying ice off before the temperatures dropped again. I rather it was summer and the slippery surface I was trying to navigate was some slick river rocks to be able to get closer to the waterfall.

This is typically the coldest week of the year where I live, but instead of being below zero temperatures it was warm enough for rain instead of snow. The rain falling on the snow packed roads and driveways polished the ice more so it was difficult to walk outside to enjoy the warmer day until later in the evening when it switched back snow concealing the ice patches. I rather see water in a stream falling over rapids in the summer than rain falling from the skies in January.

When I sneak up to Lake Superior, sometimes I stop at Amnicon Falls on my way. I have visited the falls in November but never when there is snow and ice on the ground. I probably wouldn’t wander as close to the cliff edge if icy like I did to take this photo of the lower falls and the Horton covered bridge.

The Siskiwit Falls has a series of cascades and a few small drops like this one and although it is a small river, there is more flowing water than from the remaining patches of snow that slowly melted today in the cooler temperatures.

The day remained cloudy but it probably will be one of the last days in the 60s for the year as winter is approaching too fast, so it was a good day to do some last minute outdoor activities including exploring the parks.

Although the day started out below freezing, it did warm briefly to 60 degrees to be able to enjoy some outdoor activities, like a hike along a cascading waterfall with the leaves turning their autumn colors.

With the temperature reaching 96 today, the mist from a waterfall would feel nice and help to cool down on a hot summer day.

This Sunday, there may have been some camping and nature hikes to celebrate Father’s Day. And a hiking path with a waterfall at the end of the trail is always a treat.

A summer Sunday afternoon is a great time for a hike through the woods to visit a waterfall, like Morgan Falls, a tall, narrow falls with a 70 foot drop (which the top not showing in the photo).
